! PALESTINE, TEX, June 25.-It has
been very difficult to get at the facts in
regard to the promise made in the mat
ter of developing the oil fields discover
ed near this city. Experts representing
different stock companies have been here
and left after making thor
ough examinations of the grounds
and adjacent streams without
| imparting any very encouraging informa-
ton to the owners OF the lands. MI. Ben
S. Wettermark, banker of Nscogdoches
and president of the Southwestern Petro-
leum and Mineral Development Company,
was here several days last week. After he
left it became known his company were
quietly leasing all the lands they could
secure, including the Logan tract on
which the strongest indications were
found. On the heels OF this strong To-
cal company was organized here in Pal
estine, consisting OF George A. Wright,
George w. Burkitt, s. a. McMeans, P.
W. Ezell and others This company also
has an agent in the field who is
securing leases as rapidly as
possible The object is to
secure by the lease al the lands on the
line of indications from the starting
point to the Neches river, distance of
ten to fifteen miles. As soon as this is
settled satisfactorily machinery for
thorough tests will be placed on
the ground without delay. Each
new prospect made on these
lands develops new and IN
mistakabIe features and the conviction
is growing stronger every day that An
derson county has underneath her soil
mines of wealth hitherto undreamed of. |
Five days ago reporter visited the
Camp Grounds settlement and there saw |
st Murphy's drug store, large chunks of
soft coal which exists there, three to five |

CISCO, TEX, June 25.-One of the most
pleasant and brilliant entertainments of
the season was the one given at the resi-

IN honor of the Misses Fannie and Ellen
De Berry Of Fort Worth. The evening
was pleasant one. By few moments
after 9 O'Clock the guests had Gil gath
cred, and the Governor and Mrs.
Wheeler, who cannot be excelled
as host and hostess, mad every
thing so nicely arranged and entertained
so well that the evening glided away so
quickly that when the time came for
breaking up the crowd dispersed with
great reluctance. During the first part
OF the evening the company engaged in
general conversation, vocal and instru-
mental music, and several beautiful reel
tations were rendered by Misses Wade
and Laura Richardson. Miss Fannie De
Berry and Miss Eva Winston. At 1880
O'Clock refreshments were served, to
which all did ample justice, which showed
their appreciation OF the many good
things set before them, and not until the
wee hours did the guests express their
many thanks to the host and hostess for
the very pleasant evening they had ZEN
loved - -
